Some of the maps are far too large for boots on the ground, and it was an okay go at multiplayer. Released alongside the Xbox in , Call of Duty 2 was one of the must-have games for the newest console. Call of Duty 2 is another one of the games that put you in the shoes of multiplayer factions throughout the story mode, and executes it perfectly.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Modern Warfare has been relatively good. With this being one of the newest Call of Duty games, it's by far the best in terms of graphics and overall sound design. They re-added the story mode after it wasn't present in the previous iteration of the series. The story is decent. Some movements have you on your heels wondering what's going to happen next.
It'll be interesting to see how they will continue the story into the next Modern Warfare. Moving over to the multiplayer component, additions such as 2V2 Gunfight and massive Ground War matches are some of the best the series has seen.
The maps that were released at the launch were nothing compared to the previous Call of Duty games and was rather disappointing for fans. It's still up for debate how high Modern Warfare can climb on our rankings. But for now, we believe this is a good spot.
Straying from the traditional model, which follows the Americans throughout the European theater, the series experimented and let us dive into the bloody Pacific war along with a Russian storyline. Each soldier we got to follow throughout the story had their highlights, captivating fans as the graphics and the level of gore in the game was one of a kind. World at War was also the introduction of Nazi Zombies. The four-player multiplayer game mode was an instant success.
It was perhaps one of the best modes ever introduced in a Call of Duty game. We still see people play old Call of Duty games just for the zombies game mode. Instead of having a single-player mode, Treyarch opted for the newly popular Battle Royale game mode.
Blackout is a fantastic game mode in its own rights, and players still play it heavily to this day. It was a massive risk for the developers, and it paid off. The multiplayer of the game was also a huge step in the right direction for the series. There was less emphasis on movement and more emphasis on the actual gunplay. They also changed the health system for the multiplayer.
The switch from regeneration to the use of stim items was a nice change of pace for the franchise. Activision Publishing, Inc. The latest iteration of the main series of Call of Duty games is already a few months old, but fans have already made up their mind regarding the game. Die Maschine and Firebase Z go back to the roots that Call of Duty zombies was founded on during the earlier titles. Moving on, the multiplayer portion of Black Ops Cold War is a mixed bag when talking to players.
On one side, you have the critics who note the lack of maps within the game is perhaps the biggest downfall of Cold War. Three of its retailers HomeGoods, T. Maxx, and Marshalls made the top 20 worst retail companies to work for on Ranker. You may want to retrieve the resume that you just submitted to T. In , one in six Walmart clothing factories in Bangladesh failed to meet safety standards, one factory even collapsing because of this. Walmart then refused to sign a pact to improve factory conditions, which is shady to say the least.
Walmart may want to roll back on the negative work factors a tad. Via sfyouthjobs. Walgreens is a pharmacy chain that may want to get a prescription for how to treat its employees fairly.
The Center for Popular Democracy named Walgreens the worst company in America, based on thousands of votes. Walgreens has been accused of promoting employees to salaried positions to avoid overtime pay, resulting in employees earning less per hour than their hourly coworkers. Walgreens made the top ten companies with the worst working conditions in my analysis, but, interestingly enough, just missed the top ten in the compensation category.
It ended up at number eleven, much like its position on this list; foreshadowing, perhaps? Via stltoday. Keeping with the theme of undesirable pharmacies, Express Scripts is a pharmacy benefit management company the largest in the United States , as well as a Fortune company.

Once again beating its rival to the punch by going to the future way before Call of Duty ever did, Battlefield took the large-scale multiplayer more than a century into the future as a new massive world war erupted between major factions.
The futuristic setting didn't change the game's emphasis on both on-foot and vehicular combat, however, but simply made it even more creative.
Fictional tanks, air vehicles, and even a mech straight out of Halo or Metal Gear are all included, alongside futuristic weapons that go beyond what we even dream of being possible today. Since its release, Battlefield has mostly stuck to historic and modern settings, but that is going to change very soon. See our Battlefield review. Years before Call of Duty followed suit--and only in certain levels--with Black Ops, Battlefield had already headed to one of the most controversial wars in American history with Battlefield Vietnam.
It aimed to deliver an accurate representation of the jungle-based warfare soldiers experienced during the decade-long conflict, with helicopters and jet fighters both available to pilot as ground troops clashed in the brush underneath.
Punji sticks weren't just for Tony Hawk, so you'd also have to watch your step to make sure you weren't sent to a very painful early grave. See our Battlefield Vietnam review. Shifting from the ultra-serious tone of many of the other Battlefield games and featuring a full single-player campaign--the series was largely known for multiplayer-only and bot-based matches at the time--Battlefield: Bad Company helped to introduce the franchise to an entirely new audience.
The game's destruction, made possible by an early version of the Frostbite engine, helped to keep matches feeling tense, and even those who just wanted a roller coaster ride campaign were in for a good time. The only people who weren't? That would be rectified with its sequel, which came to all three. See our Battlefield: Bad Company review.
Released to coincide, roughly, with the launch of the PS4 and Xbox One, Battlefield 4 was an absolute mess at launch--it simply crashed to the dashboard as often as it worked as intended. But after a few patches, it became one of the best modern-era Battlefield games around. With incredible destruction through a new system dubbed "Levolution," entire skyscrapers would routinely crash to the ground and change the entire map, often while taking down lots of players in the process.
